Teams Overview
Teams let you organize users into collaborative groups for shared responsibility over data products, quality checks, and governance activities.
Key Concepts
- Team: A named group of users within a space, with an optional description and manager
- Manager: A team member with elevated privileges (can add/remove members, update the team)
- Member: A standard team member
Managing Teams
Creating a Team
Navigate to Settings → Teams in a space. Click New Team and provide:
- Name — a descriptive team name (must be unique within the space)
- Description — optional context about the team's purpose
- Manager — the initial team manager (defaults to the creator)
Adding Members
From the team detail page, click Add Member and select a user from the space. Assign a role:
| Role | Permissions |
|---|---|
| Manager | Add/remove members, update team settings |
| Member | View team details and participate in assignments |
Governance Integration
Teams can be assigned as governance role holders (e.g., Data Steward, Data Owner) at the product level. When a team is assigned a governance role, all team members inherit the associated permissions.
